[quote=Anonymous]We are an interfaith family and I am currently cooking brisket for our Seder tomorrow, so I really think it’s hard to say that I’m an anti-Semite. And, I do not understand why Jews are upset that Christians are having seders (which I think is pretty rare.) They do share a belief in the Old Testament and each religion is free to interpret that text as they see fit. One doesn’t undermine the other. They are just different traditions. Also, Jews don’t really have a leg to stand on when it comes to horning in on holiday celebration. US Jews elevated the minor holiday of Hanukkah to a major celebration so they could have something festive in December so they didn’t feel left out. I get it. My DH said it sucked to be a Jewish kid around Christmas because you feel left out and Hanukkah gave the Jewish kids something to look forward to. People adopt and transform traditions all the time to fit their needs. Jews do this too. [/quote]
